EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "The Roman Legion on the March: A Musical Procession" 2. Description: This handcoloured copperplate engraving, taken from Friedrich Johann Bertuch's Bilderbuch fur Kinder (Picture Book for Children), published in Weimar in 1795, offers a vivid portrayal of a Roman legion on the move. The image showcases a diverse group of soldiers, each with their unique roles and responsibilities within the legion. 3. In the foreground, we find two heavily armed Roman legionnaires (1, 2) with their shields and spears at the ready, their stern expressions conveying the disciplined nature of the Roman military. Behind them, two lightly armed soldiers (3, 4) carry javelins and shields, their agile appearance suggesting they may be skirmishers or auxiliaries. 4. A Roman soldier (5) is depicted carrying a pack, indicating that he is likely part of the baggage train that accompanied the legion. The soldier's weary expression and the weight of his pack suggest the long and arduous journey they are undertaking. 5. The presence of an eagle bearer (6) signifies the presence of a legion, as the eagle was the symbol of a Roman legion. The eagle is depicted with its wings spread, adding a sense of grandeur and power to the scene. 6. Two musicians (7, 8) accompany the legion, their trumpets and horns providing a rhythmic backdrop to the march. The musicians' lively expressions and the intricate details of their instruments add a touch of humanity to the otherwise militaristic scene. 7. This engraving offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of the Roman legion, showcasing the various roles and responsibilities of its members. The intricate details and vibrant colours of the handcoloured copperplate engraving add to its historical significance and make it an essential addition to any collection of Roman military history or children's educational materials.
